Chapter Thirty: The Vulture Army
After many confidants' discussions, Yuwen Yi finally decided to cooperate with Ning Yue.
Since this decision was made, Yuwen Yi's confidant suggested that he show his goodwill first, so that the cooperation between the two parties will continue more smoothly.
Finally, he found an opportunity. During Yan Chongguang's itinerary to inspect the Bingma Temple, Yuwen Yi arranged a luncheon, saying that he would offer some food that was unprecedented in Qilin City.
Yan Chongguang was also curious and came to the banquet with Yuwen Yi. As a result, the dishes that came in turn were all side dishes produced by the four major groups under Ning Yue.
It has to be said that the side food products produced by Ning Yue according to modern practices are completely different from the traditional foods in Jiuxiao Tianjie. Nearly a hundred dishes and snacks were gathered at the banquet, but they were not fully prepared.
Yan Chongguang was very excited to eat and teased Yuwen Yi: "Yuwen Yi, I really didn't expect that you, the chief manager of the Bingma Temple who only knows how to lead troops, really understand what food is?"
Yuwen Yi hurriedly replied: "I just heard that after the Ganzhou conquest, it has gradually become prosperous recently. Most of them rely on these fresh foods, and they sell very well in the prefectures and counties around them."
"Oh?" Yan Chongguang became interested again, pointed to the dishes on the table and asked, "Are you saying that these dozens of different dishes are all specialties from Ganzhou? I remember that Li Xukong was sent to be the governor of Ganzhou. How did he come up with this kind of food management?"
Yuwen Yi stood at the table respectfully and replied to Yan Chongguang: "As far as my subordinates know, these staple foods and side dishes are not made by Li Zhoumu."
Yan Chongguang turned his head when he heard this, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "It's not Li Xukong, I remember that Bai Xingyuan from the Bai family was also in Ganzhou. Could it be that he invented these things? At a young age, do you really have these ideas?"
"Your Majesty, you really got it. After Bai Xingyuan arrived in Ganzhou, he focused on business operations. I don't know what method he used to design so many fresh foods. As a result, he managed Ganzhou well in about a year..."
When Yuwen Yi saw Yan Chongguang talking about Ning Yue, he also paid more attention when he spoke, but his face still looked like he was just talking about the matter.
Yan Chongguang pondered for a moment, looked at the table of delicious food, and couldn't help but smile: "I really didn't expect this kid to have such leisure and leisure. He thought about doing these things. It seems that he is really a person who loves comfort and enjoyment. Otherwise, he could do a lot of other things in this huge Ganzhou."
Yuwen Yi interrupted in at the right time and said, "Weichen heard that most of the taxes in Ganzhou last year came from these food processing. It is said that Li Xukong operated business operations, and a lot of attention was derived from Bai Xing. Then these food processing workshops appeared."
Yan Chongguang laughed and said, "Li Xukong is also an official who does practical things. He is really shameless to ask. How old is Bai Xingyuan? Only people like him who want to do facts will put down their figure and ask Bai Xingyuan for advice."
Yuwen Yi did not comment on Li Xukong's false nature, but just waited and laughed a few times.
Yan Chongguang said that Li Xukong had a slightly serious expression and said in contemplation: "It seems that Bai Xingyuan is not very ambitious. He originally saw that Ganzhou was prosperous and was about to change his position. Now, seeing that he is doing well, let him stay in Ganzhou."
Seeing that the matter was so far, Yuwen Yi had already obtained Ning Yue's good comment from Yan Chongguang's mouth, so he did things with satisfaction and waited to return to the Bingma Temple before calling Yu Twenty-eight. The two discussed the day to deepen the contact.
"Yu 28, this time, this general manager has said good things to Bai Xingyuan in front of His Majesty. His Majesty also praised what he did in Ganzhou, so I have the opportunity to give Bai Xingyuan more benefits. He is still the fifth-rank captain who was previously named?"
Yuwen Yi sat upright at the main seat and asked Yu Ershiba in front of him.
Yu Erba replied respectfully: "Mr. Yuwen is right. The military position of my chief general is still a fifth-rank captain."
Yuwen Yi nodded and said, "Now Bai Xingyuan's military title is not worthy of the position of the chief general of Ganzhou. This time, His Majesty happened to speak out. I can directly order him to promote him to the fourth-rank general, so that he can do things better in Ganzhou."
Yu Erba was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly thanked Yu Wen Yi for his thanks.
Don’t underestimate that the level of military generals from level 5 to level 4 is only improved. After Ning Yue is promoted to the fourth-level Central Army General, he is qualified to lead the army alone!
Yu 28 has been in the army and has known these benefits.
As long as Ning Yue won the title of General of the Central Army, he could get the title of an existing army in Daxia and build this army according to his own ideas.
In this way, Ning Yue will have another strong soldier under his command, and the position of the Ganzhou General Manager can be more stable.
Yu Ershiba received such important news and immediately sent someone to return it, while he was waiting for the follow-up news in Qilin City.
After Yuwen Yi made a promise to Twenty-Eight, he returned to his residence and found that there were a few confidants waiting for him.
A confidant immediately came up to ask for instructions: "Sir, after the appointment of the fourth-rank General of the Baixingyuan rank, he needs to be assigned an army. However, now the guards' elite cavalry are reorganizing because of Yan Jinglong's usurpation. How to deal with this matter? Please tell me."
Yuwen Yi looked well-rounded, and seemed to have thought of this question for a long time, and replied lightly: "Bai Xingyuan is unruly, so why not give him the Xuejiu Army."
A confidant who had not spoken was shocked and shouted: "Sir, isn't the Xuejiu Army a guard led by Yan Jinglong? It is now listed in the list of cleanings, and only a group of criminal troops are left, who are being locked in prison..."
Yuwen Yi smiled slightly, interrupted his subordinates' bluntly and said, "It is because the Xuejiu Army was led by the previous Prince Yan Jinglong that he wanted to send this army to Bai Xingwu."
Several confidants pondered for a while, and they all realized something from Yuwen Yi's words.
A confidant said tentatively: "Do you want to send some trouble to Bai Xingwu?"
Yuwen Yi raised his lips gently and said with a smile: "This time he wanted to cooperate with me. I don't think he would get into evil with me again because of some trivial matters."
"Haha, sir, this is a plan to kill two birds with one stone. We have already shown goodwill and gave him the position of a fourth-rank general, so sending an army like the Xuejiu Army is also a lawful act."
A confidant aide laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "But I just don't know how Bai Xingyuan will reorganize this Snow Eagle Army. Once he builds this army as strong as it was, he will definitely be afraid of His Majesty!"
Yuwen Yi continued the words himself and said with a smile: "You are right! If he fiddled with them, he would be afraid of them. But if he couldn't fiddled with them, it would be a good thing. I can rest assured. After all, this kid is in a strong momentum, and even I am afraid of him."
After Yuwen Yi told his plan, his group of his confidants had goals and began to designate the plans to be implemented next.
They were not worried that Ning Yue would reject such great benefits. In their position, it can be seen that the position of the fourth-rank general of the Central Army is extremely important to Ning Yue. Even for this title, Ning Yue would eat Xuejiu Army!
